3 Frightfully Good Halloween Cocktails To Make At Home

Level up your Halloween celebration at home with themed cocktails that are even more creative than your costume. From scary to scrumptious, we’ve gathered some frightfully good options for you to sip on this spooky season.

1. Vampire Cocktail

If you like your Halloween extra gory, the Self Proclaimed Foodie’s Vampire Cocktail is the drink for you. This creative concoction features a syringe filled with raspberry puree, which looks chillingly similar to blood!

Make the “blood” ahead of time by blending raspberries and then straining them to remove the seeds. Then, heat the puree in a saucepan with sugar for about ten minutes to sweeten and darken the fruit. Transfer the puree to a container and store in the refrigerator to chill.

When you’re ready to whip up this spooktacular cocktail, grab a bottle of vodka and amaretto from your bar cabinets. Add your spirits to a shaker with ice, pour them into a chilled glass, and stir in club soda and orange juice. Top your cocktail off with a blood-filled syringe for the final (and frightening) touch.

2. Pumpkin Spice White Russian

If you put pumpkin spice on everything this time of year, you’ll scream for this fall-inspired White Russian recipe. According to Country Living, all you need for this latte-like libation is your favorite coffee liqueur, vodka, pumpkin pie spice, and heavy cream.

This creamy cocktail is to die for just as is — but add on the recommended honey rim dipped in gingersnap cookie crumbs, and you can just close the coffin door. We recommend enjoying this sweet treat with a cozy blanket while watching your favorite scary movie in the TV room.

3. Blood Orange Punch

Punches are great for small gatherings, because they’re simple to throw together and they double as decor. This Blood Orange Punch ticks both boxes with only four ingredients and its deep red color. We also love any excuse to pop a bottle of prosecco from our wine storage cabinet, and this punch is extra bubbly.

Whether Halloween is just you and your boo this year or you’ll be entertaining some family members in the backyard, you can whip up a batch of this quick and devilishly delicious drink. You’ll need a bottle of campari and a bottle of sweet vermouth from your bar cabinets, as well as five blood oranges (four for juicing and one for garnishing). Don’t forget those two bottles of prosecco you’ve been saving in your wine storage cabinet. In a large bowl, stir in the campari, sweet vermouth and orange juice. Then add in your prosecco, orange slices, and ice cubes, and serve yourself a glass of this bewitching beverage.

Here’s to a frightfully good Halloween!

4 Fabulous Fall Fruit Cobblers And Crisps

Warm fruit cobblers and crisps are a perfect way to enjoy the bounty of seasonal fall produce.

Unlike a traditional pie, cobblers and crisps feature a crumbled topping (made of oats, sugar and spices), homemade shortcake biscuits, or a cake batter crust.

There’s no need to visit a country bakery or fall festival stand when you can easily make a scrumptious fruit cobbler or crisp at home, with fresh, wholesome ingredients from your kitchen pantry cabinet. If this sounds heavenly to you, here are a few fabulous recipes to try this fall!

Apple Cranberry Crisp

This delightfully simple recipe from Better Homes and Gardens lets cranberries and apples shine. Two fall favorites, these fresh fruits can be a tad on the tart side, but the crunchy oat, cinnamon and brown sugar topping adds just the right amount of sweetness. For the recipe from BHG, click here. While fresh fruit generally makes cobblers and crisps healthier than most desserts, this one is also on the lighter side at just 213 calories per serving!

Pear Cobbler

Pears are harvested in the fall, and come in a variety of shapes and textures, but firmer varieties like Bosc, Anjou, or Asian pears are most suited for baking in a crisp. This easy Pear Crisp recipe from The Spruce Eats has a buttery cake batter crust, and you can mix and match whichever pears you prefer. Once baked, this cobbler can sit at room temperature on the kitchen island for two days or in the refrigerator for five days — but we bet it won’t be around that long! Click here for the recipe from The Spruce Eats.

Pineapple Ginger Crisp

Pineapples are in season year-round, but when paired with freshly grated ginger and a crumbled topping of old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, and nutmeg from your spice rack, you’ll have the perfect sweet and spicy cobbler to welcome fall. This recipe from Fine Cooking is easy to make and bakes up bubbly brown in just 20 minutes. Click herefor the instructions and ingredients you will need from your kitchen pantry cabinet.

Cherry Cobbler

With sweet cherries, vanilla and almond extract, and warm cinnamon, Bon Appétit’s Cherry Cobbler is sure to be a fall favorite. Topped with shortcake biscuits, this delicious dessert takes a bit more work than the others, but it is well worth the effort when you have a gorgeous cherry cobbler sitting on your kitchen countertop. To get the recipe, click here.

Dream kitchens are meant to be filled with the warm aroma of freshly baked desserts come autumn, whether it’s a pie, cobbler or crisp cooling on the kitchen island or in a bowl topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Which one are you most excited to try?

3 Grown Up Granita Recipes To Make This Summer

If you’re looking for a way to beat the heat, why not head to the kitchen for a granita. This semi-frozen Italian dessert originated on the island of Sicily, off the sunny coast of the Mediterranean Sea. A granita gets its light, fluffy texture from scraping ice crystals with a fork during the freezing process. And the ingredients are as simple as can be — typically water, fresh fruit juice (or coffee) and sugar.

While a granita may sound like a grown-up version of a snow cone, it’s even better than you could imagine, especially when you add spirits from your bar cabinet into the mix. Thankfully, you don’t have to travel to Italy to try this amazing treat when you can make it right in your own kitchen! Here are a few of our favorite granita recipes to make this summer, plus easy-to-follow instructions for perfecting the freezer method.

The Freezer Method

Making a granita requires a bit of patience but is ultimately easy to accomplish. Simply mix your ingredients in a flat baking dish and place it in the freezer (tip: metal freezes quicker than tempered glass or ceramic). After about 30 minutes, remove the baking dish, scrape or break up the ice crystals with a fork, and return the baking dish to the freezer. Follow this process for two hours or until your granita reaches a coarse, slushy consistency. Scoop some into a glass, grab a spoon, and enjoy!

Lime Granita

Savoring a Lime Granita is a refreshing way to cool down on a sweltering summer day. This recipe features freshly squeezed lime juice plus lime zest for an extra touch of tartness. And don’t forget the sugar! If you don’t have time for the freezer method, you can also use an ice cream maker. For instructions from An Italian in My Kitchen, click here. If you’re over 21 and want to spike your summer dessert, tequila pairs nicely with lime.

Watermelon Granita

For this granita, puree chunks of seedless watermelon in a blender with freshly squeezed lime juice, and strain through a sieve. Sweeten to taste with simple syrup (typically a few tablespoons per cup will do). Nice additions to a Watermelon Granita include finely chopped, fresh mint leaves or a pinch of salt. For a light and refreshing adult twist, try this recipe from Skinnytaste with a splash of vodka or white rum from your bar cabinet.

Coffee Granita

If you want to chill with a caffeine boost, try this Granita di Caffè (Coffee Granita) from Italy Magazine. Brew espresso with filtered water from your refrigerator or kitchen sink and cool it to room temperature. Add simple syrup and begin the freezer method. Like your favorite Frappuchino, top your Coffee Granita with whipped cream before serving. To make this granita even more grown-up, just add coffee liqueur.

If you make a large batch and miraculously have some left, granitas can be stored in the freezer for several days covered with plastic wrap. When ready to serve, let the ice slightly melt on the kitchen island and scrape it with a fork to return the granita to the correct consistency.

Tips for Throwing a Backyard BBQ

Once the warm weather hits, it’s time to start thinking about spending more time outdoors with family and friends. And one of the best ways to do this is to host a casual backyard BBQ because—let’s be real—great food makes any gathering even better!

Plan a bit ahead with our tips below and your BBQ is sure to be a success. Not only will it be a memorable time for your guests, but you’ll be able to relax and enjoy yourself as well!

Get Your Grill Ready
Use your grill at least once before your BBQ in case there are any issues. The last thing you want is to find out there’s a problem when trying to grill at the party!
So give your grill grates a good cleaning, check if you need to replace any grilling supplies ahead of time, and stock up on propane or charcoal as needed.

Create Your Menu
Once you know how many guests are coming, you’ll be able to plan the perfect menu for the size of your group. If you’ll be expecting a large crowd, make it easier on yourself and go with a simple menu. If your gathering will be more intimate, feel free to add more to the menu and include one or two involved dishes.

Of course, regardless of the number of guests, don’t be afraid to keep food on the simple side. Choose a couple of grilled entrée selections, a few appetizers and side salads, along with a selection of fresh summer fruits and vegetables and you’ll have a menu that’s ideal for any BBQ.

Just be sure not to forget dessert! Something as simple as s’mores, brownies or cupcakes are always a hit.

Serve Refreshing Beverages
Having a selection of refreshing drinks is a must. In addition to the usual mix of sodas, guests are sure to appreciate some homemade lemonade or iced tea. Of course, have plenty of water available, too!

For alcoholic beverages, you may want to add a signature cocktail to the mix of beer and wine. For the most convenience, pick one that’s conducive to being served in a pitcher so guests can help themselves—and make at least two pitchers of it.

If you want guests to be able to mix their own favorite cocktails, a portable kitchen cart/island makes the perfect outdoor mini bar!

Consider Seating Arrangements

While most of your guests will likely be doing a lot of standing and moving around, it’s still important to have a good amount of seating available, especially since people will almost always want to sit down to eat. If needed, you can rent extra chairs or throw some blankets on the lawn for picnic-style fun.
Provide Some Entertainment

Playing music and having a few classic backyard games to keep guests active is guaranteed to liven up your barbecue for kids and adults alike. Create a playlist of popular songs (from oldies to some of today’s hits) to appease most of your guests’ musical tastes, and set up a few simple, old-fashioned games like badminton, horseshoes, bocce ball or limbo.

If your event will go into the evening, displaying Christmas lights or lanterns is a great way to keep the festivities going and create a cozy mood after sunset.

Growing Summer Herbs Indoors

Want to start growing summer herbs so you can easily incorporate them into your cooking without having to constantly run to the store? Luckily, you don’t need a huge outdoor herb garden to have fresh-grown herbs on hand in the kitchen whenever you need them.

Follow our tips below for growing and maintaining summer herbs indoors and, before you know it, you’ll be rewarded with herbs that taste extra delicious and smell lovely!

Top Tips for Growing Summer Herbs Indoors

Caring for indoor herbs is pretty low-maintenance, as they mainly need a sufficient amount of light to thrive. Below are some simple tips for growing indoor herbs:

  1. Light is the biggest factor in caring for indoor herbs, so the location you keep them in needs to have an ample amount of sunlight in order for them to flourish. A minimum of 4-6 hours of light a day, depending on the specific herb, is recommended for them to grow successfully.

If you don’t have a window, kitchen countertop or other spot in your home that will provide the amount of sunlight needed, you may need to use shop lights or grow lights for your indoor herbs to thrive.

  1. Don’t water herbs too frequently. Since herbs have minimal nutrient and water requirements, you don’t have to worry about constantly watering them. You’ll want to allow them to dry, but not to the point where they’re dried up. A good rule of thumb is to water your herbs when the soil becomes dry to the touch. In between watering, simply mist the leaves.
  1. Good drainage is important to ensure your herbs don’t get overwatered. A lightweight potting mix will keep the roots of your herbs from sitting in water. Also, a soft-sided container or a clay pot with sufficient drainage will provide even better drainage and allow oxygen into the root.
  1. Snip constantly. You’ll want to snip your herb leaves and use them for cooking regularly to keep them growing and delay flowering. Once they flower and produce seeds, they’re on their way out.
  1. Keep herbs in an area with low humidity or use a fan to circulate the air in your kitchen to prevent powdery mildew from forming on the leaves.

Wondering what herbs to grow? Basil, mint, thyme, rosemary and sage are all versatile herbs that complement an array of summer dishes. Whichever ones you decide to start with, be sure to get into the habit of using them in your cooking and enjoy the delicious flavor they add to your meals!

Healthy Spring Slow Cooking

Pulled Chicken Sandwiches with Homemade Coleslaw

The weather is warming up, but that doesn’t mean you have to pack away the slow cooker. Just swap out those hearty stew and soup recipes for lighter fare! These healthy spring recipes feature fresh seasonal vegetables, and are perfect for an easy, breezy and delicious meal.

Pulled Chicken Sandwiches with Homemade Coleslaw

Traditionally made with pork shoulder (Boston butt), these sandwiches take a lighter twist with boneless, skinless chicken breasts. In a slow cooker set to high, season a family pack of chicken breasts with two teaspoons of salt, a teaspoon of pepper, a teaspoon of mustard powder, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and 1/3 cup of apple cider vinegar. Cook for four to six hours until done (chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°). When thoroughly cooked, your chicken should shred easily using two forks in a crisscross motion.

Serve your pulled chicken on crusty Kaiser rolls cut lengthwise, topped with homemade coleslaw and a dollop of your favorite BBQ sauce. To make homemade coleslaw, finely chop raw carrots and a small head of green cabbage into thin ribbons. In a large bowl, whisk 1 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 2 tablespoons of sugar, and toss the dressing with the cabbage ribbons until well coated. Or try slices of fresh, seasonal pineapple instead of coleslaw!

Lasagna Primavera with Tomato Basil Sauce

Spring vegetablesSlow Cooker Lasagna Primavera with Tomato Basil Sauce like carrots, asparagus, sweet onions, zucchini, spinach, garlic, and peas pair perfectly with noodles, cheese, and a light tomato-based sauce. Start by whipping up a quick and simple tomato basil sauce on the stove top, in a medium saucepan. Melt 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low heat, and add a small, diced sweet onion. Cook until the onion begins to soften and turn clear, and then add a clove of fresh crushed garlic. Next, add a large can of crushed, organic tomatoes. Chiffonier a handful of fresh basil leaves to finish off your sauce, and simmer for 30 minutes.

In a bowl, combine a large container of ricotta cheese, ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, and one and a half cups of shredded mozzarella cheese. On a cutting board, julienne zucchini, carrots, and asparagus and place in a separate bowl. Add sweet raw peas, and fresh baby spinach leaves.

Set your slow cooker to low, and coat the bottom with a thin drizzle of olive oil, and a large spoonful of homemade tomato basil sauce. Layer dry lasagna noodles (do not use the no-boil variety), your cheese mixture, and your veggie mixture. Add more sauce and repeat the layers until you reach to your desired thickness. Add one last layer of dry noodles and top with tomato basil sauce.

Cover and cook on the low heat setting for four to six hours, or until the noodles are tender. Add ½ cup of shredded mozzarella to the top of your lasagna, and serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

After a busy spring day, it’s nice to come home to a delicious, easy, and healthy dinner the whole family can enjoy!
